An artist has built a house in a skip in London and plans to live in it for a year, seeking to draw attention to the "crazy" price of renting a room in Britain's capital during a cost of living crisis.
Harrison Marshall, 28, set up home in the specially-adapted skip on a patch of grass in Bermondsey, south London, a month ago, explaining that it was the only way for him to afford to live in the central area near where he works.
He said he struggled to find somewhere to live given the shortage of housing after returning to the city following a period abroad.
